Here is a pretty comprehensive listing of INUs/IMUs. I don't know how often it is updated, and with 2008 just around the corner, I wouldn't place a lot of...
Hi, After all, I'm don't have strong background in electronic. But I love electronic stuff and had several hobby kit projects. Recently, I'm just thinking to...
The difference between the positive and negative output voltages (pins 2 and 4) is a linear function of the force. So, you need to convert this differential...
... The datasheet only shows constant voltage excitation. As this is an uncompensated bridge it does not matter much, but note that a temperature compensated...
How do i calculate the normalized power for an optical mems based pressure sensor? I need to plot the output characteristic of a ring resonator(optical mems...

hi all what i exactly want is a suitable smoke sensor for my project some problems that i have faced are such these i can fine some sensors but withno pin...
Ok... well i want to build a robot to organize my closet and I'm needing a method to color sense the clothes..... which would work better... and RFID reader...
Hi, may I know what kind of sensor is in your hand now? For me, any light receiving sensor can be used as smoke sensor. What is the sensitivity of someke ...
I would imagine an RFID tag that has a far enough range would cause confusion unless your robot could home in on the tag within a fraction of an inch, but...
You can pick up an optical smoke detector for about $7 at WalMart. It will have a sensor with four pins, two for an LED, two for a photodiode. Most have...
Designing a robot that can handle clothes in the closet is a nontrivial mechanical problem, and the mechanical aspects will be the major drivers for sensor...
There's a toy on the market, basically a Nerf style ball, that comes with 6 or so RFID bracelets. The players put the bracelets on their hands, with the tag...
... Mechanics aside, an inexpensive and low-accuracy but, perhaps, still repeatable color sensor is not too difficult. I've done some experimentation with...
... Further, since <380nm UV LEDS are commonly available, you might find the (bleached, wildly fluorescing) white clothing easily by alternately illuminating...
... Suggestion.... 1. Put the RFID sensor into the hanger. You don't launder hangers, do you? 2. Consider using Zigbee or some variation thereof for position...
forgive me if I repeat. I have not read the full column. but why not just use the color sensor from the robot store(jameco)? Tom Becker <gtbecker@...>...
Well, since I'm on somewhat of a budget I was planning on going with a 3 degree of freedom polar coordinate arm design that's attached to an additional pulley...
Ok...if I was to use a 3 degree of freedom polar coordinate arm design that's attached to an additional pulley to give it more movement up and down the closet ...
Three (3) DOF polar should work, although I think it's an overkill for your application. You might get by with 1.5 DOF, if we make a gross assumption that you...
OT, but interesting, I think: We have a large six-tube wind chime whose clapper is a 6"-diameter wood disk, mounted on a thin rope that hangs in the center of...
... Probably, but I think it would be easier if you just stuffed a rag in it... A few things to consider. The amount of energy imparted by the anti-clap needs...
And of course after re-reading your post, you did say that the disc is mounted in the middle of the tube. Still, it might be a good idea to make an accurate...
Each of the tubes is a unique length for its pitch, so - as the tubes happen to be hung - the clapper's position is not centered on any of them. The tube I...
